World Wildlife Rescue Centre open to the public this weekend

The
harvest mice at Secret World Wildlife Rescue near Burnham-On-Sea
are always a favourite for visitors of all ages, and for the first
time this weekend visitors can go further into their world.

The
centre in East Huntspill will be open on Saturday 24th and Sunday
25th October from 10am to 4pm.

As
well as bats and hedgehogs, visitors will be able to get up close
to harvest mice and find out why the little mammals could use
a helping hand.

At
the Bats and Bobs open weekend there will be morning
and afternoon talks on harvest mice on both days.

"As
well as meeting the mice and learning more about Secret Worlds
efforts to increase their numbers, visitors can have a go at setting
up a harvest mouse habitat!" said a spokesperson.

"Other
attractions include bat talks, hedgehog talks, specialist stalls,
activities and a food court with vegetarian and vegan options.
Entry is free but donations are very welcome as Secret World relies
on donations to care for the harvest mice and other animals on
the site."

"Donations
of food for the animals are also very welcome, particularly Royal
Canin baby cat biscuits for all the rescued hedgehogs on site,
as well as non-biological washing powder for all the dirty laundry!"
